Bill Summary

Authorizing the Department of Natural Resources to allow a person to hunt deer on each Sunday of the deer bow hunting season in Baltimore City; and adding Baltimore City to the list of jurisdictions in which the safety zone for archery hunters extends 50 yards from a dwelling house, residence, church, or any other building or camp occupied by human beings.

AI Summary

This bill allows the Department of Natural Resources to permit individuals to hunt deer on each Sunday during the deer bow hunting season in Baltimore City, which was previously prohibited. Additionally, it expands the "safety zone" for archery hunters in Baltimore City to 50 yards from any dwelling, residence, church, or occupied building or camp, meaning hunters must maintain this distance from such structures when using a bow and arrow.
